HOMO SAPIENS


God created the universe

He made earth liveable with purpose

He gave air water soil fire light

Hoping homo sapiens will be prudent.


Much before homo sapiens

Came plants and microcreatures

Then came animals birds in different forms

Huge ones going extinct surviving others.


Sapiens evolved on earth

They believed in God since birth

They discovered they had intellect

They made tools to live and protect.


Sapiens began overpowering

Animals birds started diminishing

Sapiens felt they were superior

As they have intellect as treasure.


Even the animals that are surviving

Sapiens don't hesitate torturing

And cut them up to eat meat

Only to fill their appetite.


Sapiens think God accepts such offering

In return for their demands while praying

They want to keep their God happy

So their lives are spent gladly.


We have a ship to go on water

And an aircraft to fly through air

Now a machine to fly into space

To reach even moon or mars.


Photos videos movies get transmitted

To television sets and displayed

We have the cell phones to retrieve

Audio video signals in peace.


They have built machines gadgets

For so many of daily human acts

Like traveling walking running talking

Washing cleaning also cooking.


In this journey, Sapiens have over stepped

Beyond limits air and water have got polluted

Earth's atmosphere has become warmer

Raising fear of deluging coastal towns by ocean water.


After conquering most physical acts

They have captured mental faculties

With artificial intelligence there are no boundaries

They create sensors that can imitate all human acts.


We now have robots serving food

Machines do acts as required to cook

We have seen them in cars driving

Even doing parallel parking.


With AI they have done transformation

Data analysis Automation

Machine learning Content creation

Ecommerce Face Voice recognition.


Health diagnosis Environment monitoring

Smart infrastructure Finance and Banking

Fraud detection Cybersecurity

Drones Art Music Creativity.


They think they are God themselves

They can do anything that God does

Where will all these lead us to

Only time will tell what we do.
